Patent number: 11931041Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for treating vascular defects are disclosed herein. One aspect of the present technology, for example, includes an occlusive device comprising a mesh having a low-profile state for intravascular delivery to the aneurysm and a deployed state, the mesh comprising a first end portion, a second end portion, and a length extending between the first and second end portions, and a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, and a width extending between the first and second lateral edges. The mesh may have a predetermined shape in the deployed state in which (a) the mesh is curved along its width, (b) the mesh is curved along its length, and (c) the mesh has an undulating contour across at least a portion of one or both of its length or its width. The mesh is configured to be positioned within the aneurysm in the deployed state such that the mesh extends over the neck of the aneurysm.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Covidien LPInventors: Gregory Hamel, Patrick Quinn, Arturo Rosqueta, Stephen Sosnowski, Christopher Andrews, Hieu Dang, Dinh Nguyen, Robert Pecor, Minh Q.

Patent number: 11853552Abstract: The hybrid memory device may include volatile and non-volatile memory cells on a single substrate, or die. The non-volatile memory cells may have ferroelectric capacitors and the volatile memory cells may have paraelectric or linear dielectric capacitors for their respective logic storage components. In some examples, the volatile memory cells may be used as a cache for the non-volatile memory cells. Or the non-volatile memory cells may be used as a back-up for the volatile memory cells. By placing both types of cells on a single die, rather than separate dies, various performance metrics may be improved, including those related to power consumption and operation speed.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Kevin J. Ryan, Kirk D. Prall, Durai Vishak Nirmal Ramaswamy, Robert Quinn

Patent number: 11397750Abstract: A centralized datastore maintained by a service provider may maintain current versions of objects (e.g., applications, documents, websites, etc.). A local datastore residing on user devices of users may maintain local versions of the objects. A user may submit a modification to the object and, upon determining that a version of the local object is the same as the version of current version of the object, a current version of the object may be updated to include the modification. If the version and the current version are different, individual fields of the object may be analyzed to determine if the modification involves a change to data that conflicts with data within the same field in the current version of the object. If not, the objects may be merged and the current version of the object may be updated to include the modification. Otherwise, the modification will be rejected.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2019Date of Patent: July 26, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Vasileios Lekakis, Richard Threlkeld, Ashwin Devendran, Nathan Robert Quinn, Shih-Hsuan Yuan
